Yosemite Naturalist Service

Michael helps park visitors design their own excursions in Yosemite and delights in taking them to lesser known locations where they enjoy a more peaceful experience, especially during the “busy season.” He offers walking treks suited to the ability and focused on the interests of participants.

Michael has guided many groups of school students, teachers, friends, and people on corporate or organization retreats. He has also led field trips sponsored by organizations with special interests such as botany or bird watching.

The Tuolumne Meadows region of the park is only accessible most years between Memorial Day and mid-autumn. If you have an interest in high elevation hiking Michael can recommend a variety of hikes. During summer, free camping for the nights before and following the custom program(s) are provided in the Tuolumne Meadows Campground in sites reserved for the Yosemite Conservancy programs participants.
